As we start transitioning to fall/winter crops, the time comes to pull out our sweet pepper plants to make room for more plantings of greens. It's always bitter sweet this time of year as you work to get the most out of your summer plantings while rapidly making room for spinach, salad, and greens that will sustain us (and our customers) through the winter.

I personally prefer farming in the colder months and really enjoy the challenge of keeping plants alive and thriving when there is a foot of snow on the ground. It's also just a lot more fun to spend time in a warm greenhouse in January than a warm one in July.

We have been working on drainage projects continually for the last 5 seasons and I'm excited to get a French drain installed between these tunnels. #sumpterreal #fourseasonfarming #drainage

Come on out to the market and support all of the amazing growers, bakers, and local businesses from 9 - 1. #local #marketfarming #ypsi #farmersmarket

It's a beautiful day at the market so come out today until 1pm and stock your fridge! #ypsi #marketfarming #fourseasonfarming

More greens for this late fall/early winter are in the ground! #marketgarden #lean #notill #farming

The office/packhouse is all cleaned up and ready for the week! Monday is our set up day. We clean, organize, send our newsletter, water our tunnels, spray, assign tasks and handle all the administrative back end work it takes to run a local food business. #farming #marketgarden #business

Another busy day at market, thanks to everyone who came out today! #marketgarden #notill #lean #farming

Our kale has been powering through since it was planted in early May! It's been a ton of work to keep it clean and pest free, but we've harvested tons of kale from this small patch. #notill #lean #marketgarden #fourseasonfarming

Another rocking day at the @ypsimarkets #lean #marketgarden #notill #farming

The tomatoes and peppers are all trellised, pruned, and producing beautifully! #lean #marketgarden #fourseasonfarming #lean

Fall zucchini are an important part of our farm. In order to keep production high during low light and cool nights we double the size of our plantings and only plant them in our tunnels. #lean #notill #marketgarden

Even with all the wet weather, we are having our best tomato year yet. These plants are loaded with fruit! #marketgarden #notill #lean

Blossoms for days! #marketgarden #lean
